Review: awesome device - I haven't added video because I think the ones already up are quite accurate. So if that looks good to you for the price then go right ahead. Once I got the unit I put an old Stevie Wonder cassette from 1980 I bought at a charity shop a couple years ago but never played. Everything sounded great - similar to a classic Sanyo or Technics unit from those days. The radio is 100% legit just like a unit from 1982. If you like listening to games on the radio then this will work much better than a clock radio. Heard some hip hop on a college radio station on the FM dial sounded crystal clear perfect stereo. Also has all the blue tooth functions and USB so you can easily plug a CD-R player in to listen to CDs. I put 4 D batteries in for the old school appeal and it fired up like Back To The Future. Love this thing. Was going to buy the silver one but I decided someone else should have it for a holiday gift. maybe next year I'll get an upgraded model! EDIT: HAD IT FOR A MONTH NOW NO ISSUES 4 Ds still pumping tunes getting the game nice also bluetooth connection is very strong and in stereo. Great sound. Tape deck is fine too. I don't digitize old tapes can't review that. But I didn't want that - honestly if you have super rare live cassette tapes that need to be digitized because of sentimental value don't get this, just go to a local audio dealer they can help you in fine style. That old New Edition mixtape from 1983 you want to play? guaranteed desertcart music can hook you up with a nice 70s or 80s mix if you ask nice Review: Best nostalgia purchase ever - This boombox made my day. It’s not heavy and the sound quality is great. I love that you have the option to use a plug or put in batteries for on the go. Highly recommend this product. Picks up radio stations easily too. ## Features - RETRO VIBE POWERED WITH MODERN-DAY FEATURES Revisit the nostalgic memories from the past with the vintage-styled RACR-510BT Retro Bluetooth Boombox Cassette player having rich sound quality, built-in stereo speakers, Bluetooth connectivity, and ultimate wireless audio experience. - WIDE BLUETOOTH COMPATIBILITY Stream your treasured music with an inherent Bluetooth feature that allows super-fast wireless pairing to a wide range of devices like iPhones, Android Smartphones and devices, iPods, iPads, tablets, laptops, etc. so that you can play unlimited and enjoy unlimited. - EXPANDED OPTIONS FOR FURTHER CONNECTIVITY The party should never stop just because of poor connectivity.

Great bass? As in BOOMING FEEL IT IN YOUR CHEST THUMPING bass? No. It is a balanced mixed. It doesn't suck. Not tinny. But if you are wanting a deep moving bass you won't find it on this box. I would say it is a good replica of what I had back in the 80's. I personally love it. **Q: I bought this for my 91yr old dad. can someone tell me how you got it to play with batteries? he put them in and says it won’t play. is there a switch** A: How it works is that when you plug the AC power cord into the back of the unit, the batteries are cut off. He may have unplugged it from the wall but left the power cord plugged into the back of the radio. He needs to unplug the power cord from the back of the radio, as well as unplug the cord from the electric outlet, to get it to work on batteries. If he has already unplugged the cord from the back of the radio and it still won't play on batteries, here is what's probably happening. Inside the jack for the power cord on the back of the radio there is a little flap that moves back and forth when you put the power cord in and pull it out. When you push the power cord in, you're also pushing this little flap upward, which switches it from battery power to AC electric power. This flap might not be popping back down when the power cord is removed. I would suggest unplugging the cord from the electrical outlet, then plug and unplug the power cord from the back of the unit several times to see if you can free up this flap. (When it's popped out, you can see it inside the jack.) If this doesn't work, the unit may be defective and need to be exchanged. **Q: Is this product wireless or does it take rechargeable batteries?** A: It takes size D batteries and has a power cord if you want to plug it into an outlet. **Q: Can it really pick up short-wave radio?** A: Sure, SW works good ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ awesome device *by J***Y on December 10, 2023* I haven't added video because I think the ones already up are quite accurate.

It’s not heavy and the sound quality is great. I love that you have the option to use a plug or put in batteries for on the go. Highly recommend this product. Picks up radio stations easily too. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nostalgia at its best! *by N***Z on July 5, 2021* The sound QUALITY is ‘just ok’ but I have way better equipment for picking up subtle notes on my favorite jazz records. This is not for that. THIS DAMN THING IS FUU-UUN. It has every possible connection. The radio, a working CASSETTE PLAYER! You can also track through songs ON the box so you don’t have to find whoever’s Bluetooth is connected at the moment. It was the life of the party and will be for years to come. Definitely a must have if you are of an era where you had one of these as a kid. ## Frequently Bought Together - Riptunes Boombox Radio Cassette Player Recorder, AM/FM -SW1/SW2 Radio, Wireless Streaming, USB/Micro SD Slots, Aux in, Headphone Jack, Classic 80s Style Retro, Black - Maxell UR 90 Normal Bias Blank Audio Recording Cassette Tape, Low Noise, 90 Minute Recording Time, 5 Pack - Guardians Of The Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 1 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/256090271-riptunes-boombox-radio-cassette-player-recorder-am-fm-sw1-sw2](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/256090271-riptunes-boombox-radio-cassette-player-recorder-am-fm-sw1-sw2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
